And just like this man, we may need a miracle to get our cutting edge back. She then connects the fact that this was a borrowed ax to the fact that we get our passion from God, and the enemy doesn’t want us to know that. This is just not what the passage is saying.
“In fact, one of Satan’s dirtiest little tactics is to sneak in and steal it while you’re square in the middle of investing yourself in worthwhile activities” (32). And so she says we could be doing something good, and still lose our cutting edge, our passion in prayer. She connects this text to how our “cutting edge” in prayer may be lost. Shirer teaches that when one of Elisha's protégés lost the iron head from his ax in the water, he “lost his cutting edge.” She has some good principles laid out to teach, like, “Despite the lost ax head, the presence of God was still near” (31), but the exposition and application itself is hokey and wrong.
